Good question. A NOTICE just might be ignored, breaking everything
"surprisingly" in 7.5.
To speak a bit more general, how about some sort of "deprecation
checker" setting, if set to true anything marked as deprecated will
throw an error, if false only a notice will be generated. This would
enable users to check their existing stuff for future compatibility
before it's broken in the next release.
